World Cinema Documentary
Back To Film Guide

Documentary Feature | USA | 2024 | English | 87 minutes


Wannabe actor Zachary Horwitz moved to Los Angeles desperate to make it big as a movie star, but there was one thing stopping him: talent. Capitalizing on the dreams of others like himself seeking quick fame and fortune, Horwitz then launched what would become one of the biggest Ponzi schemes in American history. Through revelatory interviews with his victims and biting use of footage from his failed acting career, BAD ACTOR takes up the juicy true story of Horwitz’ rise and fall to articulate much deeper truths about the unexpected power of deception and denial. A Neon release.
